LANSING, Mich. — Senate Republican Leader Aric Nesbitt, R-Porter Township, on Wednesday released a video response to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s “Road Ahead Address” at the Detroit Auto Show.
“Gov. Whitmer just gave another rosy speech asking you not to believe your own eyes — to not believe that our roads are crumbling, our schools are failing, and our families are falling further and further behind,” Nesbitt said in the video. “But by every metric, they are. And by every metric, Democrat control of Lansing was a disaster. Our roads, our schools, and our economy all rank in the bottom 10 nationally.
“Thankfully, the people of Michigan spoke loud and clear in November. And working with the new Republican majority in the House and Speaker Hall, we’ll start to clean up the mess made by Gov. Whitmer and Democrats. Let’s get to work.”
